that looks SO good Gabe. 'grats!

I concur! What an awesome job.
It will look even better with your VMR 710s on.

Damn nice. I'm VERY interested in how it holds up!

Yeah, if that ever happens...

Don't you already have a set with Hankook Ventus V12s on them?
Did something happen?

Curbed one. Been attempting to get it repaired or replaced for a couple months now. I don't have the strength to tell the story right now. CN: Because Germany.

I'm really sorry to hear it. I love those wheels.
Surprised to hear that you can't find a replacement or a fix.
Hope you can get it resolved.

VMR will no longer ship to APO. A new wheel is the same price as painting them all to match (no one can match the color here, VMR says they don't have a paint code for the color). Add in typically shite German customer "service" and you can guess the rest of the story.
I'll never take good customer service for granted again.

Oh man that SUCKS!!!
I don't have any other thoughts to add, just my condolences.

iPhone pic of the wheels on the car. They didn't do a perfect job (and they "forgot" to reinstall my TPMS sensors) but the wheels look great from a few feet away.
A professional photog buddy keeps promising to help me do a proper photoshoot...

Gold on matte green.
Awesome!

just needs some splitters on the front.....awesome!

Not too keen on spending $1000 on a part that will, in all likelihood, be ripped off the first time I drive through a small town.
BWM makes a pair of "splitters" that attach to each side of the center grill but they're CF and are very expensive for what you get.
Another company makes a lip that I really like but it's $1300 and they won't ship to APO.

The next mods will be suspension, once this furlough business is over.

If the car were to suddenly come up for sale, would anyone be interested? Everything but the Performance Steering wheel included...

Its beautiful, but probably not for the money you need/want... :-/

Is there a new love we have not heard about?

What appears to be a decent deal on an Alpine White 1M. Going to look at it Saturday. The biggest problem will be selling my modded car. And I love the wrap.

1M deal is off. Some personal things came up that made me reevaluate doubling my car debt. Also, the guy upped his asking price a bit. He must be getting a lot of attention and realized that he could get more. Good on him, I can't say I wouldn't do the same.

Back to modding Nina.

sounds like you won either way

^^^ Exactly! She's looking GOOD!

What was so appealing in the 1M that Nina is missing?
Is the N54 the draw or the trick diff from the M3?

M suspension (will eventually get this, will be expensive), M bushings (already have them, can't find anyone to install them), LSD (would like to get this, will be VERY expensive), fender flairs (fronts are easy enough, rears are prohibitively expensive), collectibility.

I updated the mod list (installed the diffuser, FMIC and smoked side markers)

Does the larger FMIC allow you to run higher boost? What does it run boost wise anyway?
